Enjoy a classic Reuben panini made right on the grill. Melted Swiss cheese, tangy sauerkraut, and zesty Russian dressing come together with layers of pastrami (or corned beef) on hearty rye bread.

Ingredients


Russian Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chili Sauce
- 2 teaspoons horseradish
- 2 teaspoons pickle relish

All Ingredients
- 2 slices Rye Bread
- 1 tablespoon butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon Russian Sauce
- Corned beef or Pastrami, sliced thin
- 1/4 cup Sauerkraut, drained
- 2 slices Swiss cheese, sliced
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chili Sauce
- 2 teaspoons horseradish
- 2 teaspoons pickle relish

Instructions

Step 1: Mix all ingredients for the Russian sauce together and set aside.

Step 2: Preheat Flat Top Grill or griddle to medium heat. It is important to let the griddle heat slowly to prevent any warping.

Step 3: While your Flat Top Grill or griddle heats, spread 1 tablespoon of softened butter on the outside of the rye bread.

Step 4: Then spread one tablespoon of Russian sauce on each side of the rye bread.

Step 5: Place corned beef or pastrami on one side of the bread, then add drained sauerkraut, and top with two slices of Swiss cheese. Place the second piece of bread on top of the sandwich (Russian sauce side down, buttered side up).

Step 6: Place the sandwich on the grill or griddle, then place the Bacon Panini Press or a cast iron skillet on top of the sandwich and cook until the panini is golden brown and the cheese has melted.

Step 7: Serve with a pickle and additional Russian sauce if desired.
